Indian Army Shaktiman Truck

Recommended Posts

Here are a couple of photos of a Shaktiman ex Indian Army truck that I got a lift in whilst trekking in the Nepalese Himalyas. The Shaktiman was being used for carrying rice and other supplies to villages near Annapurna.

The Shaktiman is basically a copy of the German MAN 630 L2AE and is built in the Vehicle Factory, Jabalpur, India.

It has a payload of 3 tons, and was available as GS, artillery tractor and tanker variants.
